About her

At this stage, I'm looking for someone to have fun with really, someone who is retired/semi-retired, not enslaved to a job. I've lived in four different countries, done the expat life and learnt a lot on the way. I love dogs, horses, nature, gardening, but most of all, laughter is my drug of choice.
I love banter, and chat so the quiet type needn't apply. Conversation should be like a good game of tennis - a two way thing. I'm also an infomaniac - love absorbing information and I'm very curious about most things in life. My journalistic background ensures that I'm always asking questions and trying to find out why or how.
I'm kind and loving and nurturing, always putting others needs before my own - but I guess that's due to the fact that I've been a mother and wife,
Life with me is never boring, you just have to be able to keep up - better if you can also lead a little.
I'm a good person, and strive never to do anything to anyone else that I would not want to have done to me.

Her ideal match

Are you thoughtful but also able to chat occasionally? Do you have wide interests, more biased towards the outdoors than only sitting behind a computer? Do you like fun and adventure? Will you travel with me? I will soon be in a position to travel widely and would love someone with the time and desire to travel with me.

I think it would be ideal if you could also cook - cooking together can be great fun. And if you could sometimes share my interest in gardening. If you could stretch my mind by telling me about the latest book you are reading, all the better. If you have a warm personality, then you'll have me eating out of your hand.

High on my list of requirements is someone who has lived in at least one other country, if not more.

I would love to meet you if you are aware of how important every single minute is, and live accordingly.
